How good is JIO FIBER for gaming(Quality Check). Planning to upgrade(NEW UNLIMITED Plans).

[Sammy]

55-60ms COD Warzone (Singapore)
30ms CS (BOM)
50-55ms Valorant (Singapore)

I get 20-50 ms on mumbai in cs( which is like 500 kms away) , 90 ms on valorant.

I have experienced really good pings with JioFiber in Mumbai with 0% Packet Loss, and NAT Type being OPEN (Hathway & my local internet used to always be Moderate). Pretty similar to what @Sammy is getting. When I first got my connection, the NAT Type was Moderate, but automatically changed to Open in about a week or so. Anyway, I was getting the same ping and 0% packet loss on Moderate as well.

55-70 ms COD Warzone (Americas region)
50-60 ms Valorant
Just note that you will get higher pings if you're grouping up with your friends, and the host has a higher ping than you, especially in COD.

Can someone explain for a non-tech person like me about this NAT thing and how it can be set to open as above?

Thanks!

@kkapoorr Network Address Translation. Basically this is needed if you don't have a public IPv4 address. In Jio, you have a private IPv4 address. It means your IP address is an address in Jio's internal network, and not visible to the internet. People from outside can't reach you with just IP address, because this public IP address is shared by many people in Jio's internal network. NAT tells IP packets coming from internet which internal IP address to go to, since you're not directly visible outside. It's like you're permanently living in a hotel room, courier from outside comes only till reception desk with your name. Hotel staff (like NAT) does the job of delivering the packet till your room. The sender didn't know your room number, only hotel name. The problem comes in peer to peer applications like some games like FIFA, where direct IP connection is needed. Open NAT means you're directly accessible from outside without intermediaries like the hotel staff. This NAT used at level of ISPs is called carrier grade NAT (CGNAT). Another NAT that happens is in your home network. The packets come till your router which sends them to right devices. This one is fixed by forwarding ports since you have the router access, but CGNAT happens at ISP's router, you can't do much.

In Jio you have a private IPv4 (CGNAT) and public IPv6. So if the application is using IPv4, it will see NAT type strict, if it is using IPv6, it will see an open NAT.

So is there any way to improve things at my end?

well below 50ms would be ideal. In terms of network performance goes. But having no packetloss is a positive sign. What about jitter? Is your ping mostly consistent? Thanks a lot for the info btw.

I got jio fibre yesterday ..ping is high a bit not too much but theres no packet loss in the connection as last connection had..and surprisingly in valorant I'm getting even less ping than my old connection and in fortnite im getting double

Old connection: 1ms ping
Valorant :78ping 15% packet loss
Fortnite :27 ping 15% packet loss

Jio fibre :22ms ping.
Valorant :60 ping constant and 0 %loss
Fortnute :58ping 0%loss

I really like jio fibre as the gameplay is very smooth than previous

Bro... Listen to me.... I have been a JIO FIBER user for more than a year now. If you want a WiFi for just normal day to day use, its excellent. But if you are planning on getting JIO FIBER for gaming.... Just don't. It is literally THE WORST ISP for gaming. The router has something known as DOUBLE NAT which will not let you forward ports nor enable UPnP. Both of those functions are really important if youre a gamer. I would recommend you to get an AirTel connection if you want to play games.

I play on PS4
Fortnite: Middle East Servers - 60-80ms
COD MW/Warzone: Sometimes 80-100ms but mostly 200ms+
Rocket League: SE Maritime Servers - 80-105ms and Middle East Servers 190ms+

Something seems to be wrong with their routing I guess. I really don't know whats wrong to be getting these kinds of absurd pings....

On CMD, when I ping 8.8.8.8 (GOOGLE DNS)... I get the following results...
Ping statistics for 8.8.8.8:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 36ms, Maximum = 39ms, Average = 37ms

Whereas in AirTel, the average ping is around 15-20ms.

Every operator provides open NAT on IPv6.
